Yay! “Arithmaroo and You Too: an App Review”

by Lynn Rasmussen on May 21, 2010

I’ve been traveling and couldn’t respond until now to this outstanding review. The Nerdy Teacher, Nick Provenzano wrote about his own struggle with math and his blow-by-blow experience with Arithmaroo Counting. He’s an amazing teacher.

Read yesterday’s post about grades and project teaching. Nick lives what he wants from his students–He explores, tries new things, and learns as he goes. He talks about his process. He explores how he learns. He makes it all real and fun.

Can he be cloned?

How to Learn Math

April 16, 2010

Notice how I didn’t say “How to Teach Math”? Although you may have been taught in a variety of ways, if you are reasonably competent at basic arithmetic, you have figured out your own way to do it. Think about it. How do you see the number 9?  How do you see “odd” and “even”? [...]
